Peak line length?

ssayre - 18-4-2015 at 11:23 AM

Are the front and back lines suppose to be the same length? My front lines are 2" longer and wasn't sure if that was stretch. I'm going to make a short line set and want to know if I make them same length or not.

Thanks

Just looked at the line plan on flysurfer's site. They specify both front and back at 21 meters so I will assume I have some stretch in my front lines.

I had mine out yesterday. It wasn't an exact measurement as lines were still on the bar, but I checked as best I could and they all seemed to be the same length.

2" of stretch on your lines sounds like a lot!

Well, they have had to pull a fat guy through thick grass a lot:P
